I think the term "mathematically" is used here broadly and metaphorically, and not literally meaning a symbolic formula. Perhaps "measurably" would have been a better term. No doubt you measure people on various skills during an engineering interview rather than the shape and color of their body, right? Board of Director positions also have measurable skills.
- boolemancer 4y agoAre you really going to claim that there is some objective way to choose the best candidate during an engineering interview?
- colordrops 4y agoNo, I'm going to claim that there is at least something better than judging on physical characteristics. In fact most companies agree. It's not a strange or unique opinion.
- simion314 4y agoMost company want to meet and see you, why is that? why are so incompetent and not just give you a test and have someone check the results without meeting you and having a bias ?
- simion314 4y agoThen don't fucking use math to prove a point if it involves only subjective shit like I think this dude has better social skills because I know it when I see it, or this dude has larger culture fit because he likes same movie I do. If you can meassure skils then you should be capable of hiring people with this simple 2 steps 1 Person A administers the tests 2 Person B checks the results but he has no idea who the candidates are No more problems with gender,race,culture,political affiliation Someone explain me how you always have to meet the candidate because you have a skill to read they competence and cultural fit from their face and body proportions and you are special and this proven physical biases never affect you the special one. I mean "you" in a general term not the comment author.
